My trip to the land of Pharoah

Do you facebook? Or Tagged? or Pagii-ed? Well, these, amongst many online social networks that was set up by many organisations, to give a platform of sorts for Internet users to make friends, and socialised via, what else, the www - world wide web.

If last time, it was only Hotmails and yahoo!, now people at least have Myspace, Friendster, Facebook or Tagged accounts under their belt, though many times, people can only keep tract of one or two of such accounts.

Uh Oh! Do you know there are Friendster's cafes in Sunway Pyramid and The Curve? Complete with the trademarks, mind you!

True to it's nature as social and networking platforms, these networks offers many features that can be manipulated in many ways.

Some us it to find new friends, some to seek old buddies, some to spread their business, legal or illegals, some to express themselves, some to put pictures, some to find life partners, some even use it to pray for unsuspecting victims for sex.

Explicit pictures or porn artists (or is it?) plying around in these social networks, that seems poorly supervised by people behind it.

You can also find bullies plying around, looking for victims, people that they can torment to the very end.

By far, Facebook is the most popular one, currently, til the next latest and newest social networks created and jumped on everybody's face.

Some of the accounts that I had, I sort of forgot what the passwords or username. I mean, how much attention can you give for all these social networks, that as demanding as your todlers at home?

With these accounts, comes also risks. Not just some fly by night businessmen, or sex maniacs or some cheating husbands looking for express fun, but people like me also at risk of being the victim of identity thieves.

But what can I do, should I delete all accounts? Maybe I should, but again, I will lost all infos and pictures that I've put up. Decisions, decision.......

anyway, I know some of you may say, hey why the picture I uploaded does not corresponds to this entry.... It does actually. All I'm saying, I might abondoned all these internet thingie and goes back to the REAL pleasures of life, I used to enjoy before.
